Thank you. This was the song I was looking for. My parents knew it. I'm afraid I'll get to know it well too.

I like all three versions of this song Al Jolson, Bing Crosby and Charlie Polloy. This is definetly the most upbeat. This is what I call "Soul Music"

This is by far the best version of this song that I have heard so far. Thanks for posting this!

Good voice and version, but would have been better done more slowly. For that reason, I still think no one can beat Bing Crosby's 1934version.

See this leaves out the first verse which is more controversial (socialistic) but great instrumentation..here..!

Brocklin Enterprises is the Old Book Depository in Dallas...did you know that it was owned by Charlie Palloy. He lost it to?????? Was it Connolly or Kennedy? Or did he just lose Crown Records to Jack Kennedy and his friends? I thought I would place the photo in the video before singing myself Brother Can You Spare a Dime...woman dressed in black. I had a funeral to go to in LA that day. The two videos were made after a visit to LA jail to visit Mr. Holt.

It is. And that's what makes this song so beautiful and powerful. It doesn't paint a rosy picture- it was cold, hard reality.
Let's hope that it never happens again- but the economic forecasts now are not good.
